Chapter 307 Exposure (One More Monthly Ticket)
Lord Zhou bowed his hands perfunctorily: "I have seen the prince before."
"Sit down." Shangguan Han nodded and said politely, "I didn't know that Lord Zhou was coming a few days ago. For the people who stuttered, I have been taking people around in the mountains, and no one in the city bumped into the Lord."
His question made Master Zhou think of that Doctor Jia, his face was instantly black as the bottom of a pot, and he twitched the corners of his mouth: "Even if the prince has asked, then this official will tell the truth, this Xunyang City is really chaotic, is there anything wrong with it? The long-eyed collision with the official is a trivial matter.
How can there still be a five-year-long abduction and trafficking of girls? The lord should really take care of it. "
Shangguan Han rolled his eyes inwardly. Five years ago, Xunyang was not his territory.
With a sneer on his face, he said with a cold face: "Master Zhou is right, this king wants to take care of it, and if you don't take care of it, you will find the problem."
Lord Zhou was stunned, why is this different from what he thought? King Anle shouldn't agree with himself at this time and say something nice, in an attempt to get him to say something nice for him in front of His Majesty when he returns to Beijing?
Regardless of what he thought, Shangguan Han took out a jade pendant from his arms and put it in front of Master Zhou: "Does Master Zhou know this?"
As an old minister in the DPRK, how could Master Zhou not know him?
He frowned: "My lord, what do you mean?"
Shangguan Han said nothing, took out another jade pendant from the box beside him and put it in.
Lord Zhou was stunned for a moment, glanced at Shangguan Han, stretched out his hand and carefully compared the two jade pendants in his hand, only to realize that something was wrong: "This, how can Wang Ye have two?"
Shangguan Han raised the corners of his lips: "This is what this king is curious about, why would I get such a jade pendant from the criminal who kidnapped and sold the girl.
This king has been away from Beijing for more than a year, so I don't know very well. Does anyone else have this jade pendant besides our brothers? "
Lord Zhou also heard something wrong at this time, and his eyelids jumped. Does King Anle want him to report this to His Majesty?
"After all, this is not a trivial matter. Master Zhou has also seen how intense the people's emotions are about this matter. If it is spread that it was done by someone in the royal family, I'm afraid it will cause chaos."
Shangguan Han leaned back and took a sip from the tea cup: "Besides, who can guarantee that this incident will only happen in my Xunyang City? If it hadn't been caught by this king this time, this incident would have continued. How long? What does that person want to do after arresting so many people?
So..." Shangguan Han paused for a while and continued, "I will trouble Lord Zhou to bring this extra jade pendant back. If one of my brothers accidentally loses it, it can be returned to the original owner. "
Lord Zhou came out of the study full of worries, and Zhou Qing greeted him: "Master."
Lord Zhou nodded: "Go back to the inn."
"Master Zhou, this old slave will send you out." Butler Wan respectfully stepped forward and led the way.
Just as he was about to turn a corner, Master Zhou remembered that he was not here to dispose of King Anle? How could he be led by the nose.
He frowned and turned his head, and saw the black figure entering King Anle's study.
He only had time to see a profile view before being blocked.
With a smile on his face, Steward Wan stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation: "Master Zhou, come this way."
When Lord Zhou wanted to look again, the study door was already closed, he snorted coldly, pointed at a young servant passing by and said, "Don't bother the housekeeper, let him take us out of the house."
Butler Wan bowed: "No trouble, no trouble, this is the old slave's business."
"Huh?" Lord Zhou raised his face.
Seeing his insistence, Steward Wan could only scolded the answer, and sternly exhorted the little servant who was named by Lord Zhou before handing over and stepping back.
Lord Zhou looked at the little servant who was walking half a step in front of him and suddenly said, "Who is the person who entered the prince's study just now?"
The little servant said subconsciously, "It's the son of Shen."
"Oh? Does he usually wear a mask in and out?" Lord Zhou seemed to be just casually chatting.
Servant: "Yes."
Lord Zhou frowned, that side face just now...
"My lord, my lord?"
Lord Zhou returned to his senses, rubbed his temples, and said tiredly, "What's the matter?"
"Eunuch Li sent someone to ask when we will leave for Beijing."
Lord Zhou pondered for a moment, then got up and walked to the window sill: "Go and call Lin Xiao first."
At night, in the study of the Shen family.
Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen read the list page by page in front of the bookcase.
The mask that Song Jingchen often wears is put aside.
"Are these women sent out in the past few years?" Although he knew that these people had been committing crimes for a long time, Shen Yijia did not expect so many people.
There are probably hundreds of them.
"Yeah." Song Jingchen replied in a deep voice, seeing that Shen Yijia was starting to rub his eyes, he closed the book and said, "Go back to your room to sleep first, these are nothing to see."
After such a long time, I am afraid that less than 12 of the women inside are still alive.
Shen Yijia pouted: "Okay, what are you going to do with this list?"
Song Jingchen hooked his lips: "There is always a time when it can be used."
"Then you have to hide it well and don't be stolen." Shen Yijia puffed her cheeks and looked serious.
"Don't worry, few people should know that we have this thing in our hands."
He guessed that Liu Deyi would remember this and also wanted to keep a backhand, so he would definitely not let others know.
"What if there is?"
Song Jingchen chuckled and rubbed her little head: "Don't worry, what I don't want to give, I'd rather destroy it than let others get it."
Shen Yijia blinked and grinned at Song Jingchen, just about to say something.
Song Jingchen suddenly looked out the window coldly, and shouted: "Who?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yijia rushed out and saw a black cat jumping on the fence lightly and running fast.
Shen Yijia rolled her eyes: "It must be the dumpling again."
Should cats not be afraid of big bugs? But when it comes to the dumplings, it's different. From time to time, wild cats who don't know where they come from come to play with it.
If it wasn't for the dango's physique, I would have thought it was a cat too.
Song Jingchen walked out to look at the direction the cat was leaving, and took Shen Yijia's hand: "It's getting late, go back to the house and rest."
The two turned around and went back to the room.
The tense nerves of the black-clothed man hidden in the dark loosened, and cold sweat broke out all over his body. At this time, his temples were wet, as if he had just been picked up from the water.
Thinking of what he had just seen and heard, his heart was still pounding.
The son of Shen, turned out to be the son of Song!
Listening to Lin Xiao's reply, Master Zhou jumped up from the place in shock, circled twice in place, and said in a hurry, "Block, pack up, let's go out of the city immediately."
This matter must be made known to His Majesty as soon as possible. Not only did Song Jingchen have good legs, but he even came to Xunyang City privately.
Eunuch Li finally took a rest after pulling his stomach, and was woken up again, so angry that he kicked Qishou's feet fiercely.
But the convulsion surnamed Zhou was about to leave, so he could only bear it.
At the urging of Lord Zhou, dozens of people quickly packed up and left the inn.
